It鈥檚 crunch time here at 冈本视频. With finals week coming up, everyone is keeping busy.
Sharing the last classes of the year with my fellow peers is a bit sad. I made good friends in all of my classes, and I鈥檓 going to miss the times we had. Still, next semester brings a whole new set of knowledge to the table, and I can鈥檛 wait to come back to a fresh set of professors, faces, and courses!
Though this week I鈥檝e been spending most of my time with my nose in the books, I was able to do some activities for my own enjoyment as well.
I went to a Brown Bag at the Women鈥檚 Studies Center that discussed the book So Sexy So Soon, which touches on the idea that children are becoming exposed to mature material through the media at an early age.
It was an eye-opening discussion, and it really sparked my interest in the topic; I may pick up the book myself.
There also have been quite a few study breaks hosted by various clubs such as BSU and SORT. These study breaks give students time to relax and get their minds off work. I hear there is a Denzel Washington Study Break coming up; I wouldn鈥檛 mind catching some of his acting as well as charming good-looks!
In any case, this weekend will be mild. Saturday I鈥檒l be catching A Charlie Brown Christmas at the Hamilton Movie Theater. I鈥檓 quite a kid at heart!
I鈥檒l also be checking out the men鈥檚 hockey game against Niagara; I must admit that hockey games are some of the most engaging to watch.
Sunday will be another day of review. This, however, doesn鈥檛 mean that I won鈥檛 make time for the Slide Ireland鈥檚 Christmas Show with Irish dancers. I love Irish dancing because it reminds me of the type of dance I used to do back home.
Due to final exams, I won鈥檛 be able to blog until after break. Though I鈥檓 yearning to go home, I know I鈥檒l be missing 冈本视频 greatly!
This first semester has flown by, and I can鈥檛 capture in words how amazing it鈥檚 been for me. My memories are filled with laughter, enjoyment, excitement, and, yes, sometimes frustrations.
Regardless, this semester has been beyond anything I expected, though I know the road is not over. I still have another semester to go, and more lessons to learn.
